Water coming out

My mother hss been on dialysis for more than 5 years now. She had multiple other health issues recently but suddenly she has developed a water leak through a spot on her skin above the chest. There is a lot of water coming out that she needs to keep changing clothes. Please, does anyone have any idea what it is and what we could do? Thank you. She is on dialysis 3 times a week

It sounds like your mother might have a fistula or another complication related to dialysis. Please contact her healthcare team immediately to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Rather than talking to us about that get her to a doctor. Unless you was some kind of a scar or something like that that sounds really really bizarre. But get her to a doctor as soon as you can to have them take a look at that.
